Use Secure Passwords

Even if you think you have a secure password, you might be wrong. Yesterday’s clever tricks aren’t protecting you from today’s hackers, and you need to be extra vigilant in this age of constant security breaches.

Tips:

Try RoboForm – It remembers passwords so you don’t have to.

Don’t use the same password for each site/application.

AVOIDformulas like these –

– Using a name, place, or common word as the seed, e.g., “fido”
– Capitalizing the first letter: “Fido”
– Adding a number, most likely 1 or 2, at the end: “Fido1”
– Adding one of the most common symbols (~, !, @, #, $, %, &, ?) at the end: “Fido1!”
– Using passwords like qwerty, 12345, or password
